The bed was comfortable, the room was very airy... - Review of Hotel Dreams Valdivia

I was pleasantly surprised with the accommodations at Dreams as well as the location. Having lived in Las Vegas I was gun shy about staying at a casino hotel. The bed was comfortable, the room was very airy and I had a great deck facing the river. The breakfast was incredible... fresh, fresh fresh... take advantage of the salmon, some of the best I've ever had. I highly recommend this hotel if you're visiting this region.

Room Tip: If you want a good nights rest do not get a room facing the river. The sea lions bark incessantly.

You can't miss this 12-story hotel and casino that towers above Valdivia, and is most likely the best hotel in town. Being large, it is also impersonal, but we had a nice, modern room with a balcony overlooking the river. The bathroom was fairly large and had glass windows to the bedroom. Breakfast was an abundant buffet on the 12th floor, and we could request an omelette made to order.

The riverfront seemed rather rough, especially after dark, and had no shops along it. However, the drive west of town to Niebla and then north along the coast until the road ended was a beautiful drive. The area reminded us of Big Sur, minus all of the development.

It's no wonder why this fantastic hotel (modelled after Burj Al Arab?) is Valdivia's best rated. Rooms are clean and spacious (32 square metres for a standard and about 50 for a junior suite which is well worth paying a little extra for). The tallest building in Valdivia, it affords excellent views of both Río Valdivia and Río Calle-Calle. Units facing the former overlook the active waterfront while the opposite side tends to be quieter. Parking is free, breakfast wonderful and the heated swimming pool state-of-the-art. Staff, some English-speaking, are always willing to suggest attractions or book restaurants for us. At the weekend the casino seems popular among local gamblers but it's not very big or noisy.

For seismologists, the top-floor restaurant with stunning views where breakfast is served is famous for the 2010 earthquake clip that has gone viral. (When we watched it at the bar, one waiter even jokingly pointed to us where he was.) Luckily no one in Valdivia died in that catastrophe.

Room Tip: Ask for rooms on upper floors. Those facing Río Valdivia have better views but the opposite side te...

We stayed here on the 28th of March, family of four, two small kids. Cost about $200 per night. Great hotel, truly world class, very modern including the rooms. Did not hear any noise from the city. Locations is excellent, about two blocks from plaza and fish market. Great balcony views from room, pick river view. Breakfast was great on the 12th floor with excellent views of the city. Pool looked great, too bad we got there late and had to leave early, we will stay here next time we come. Service and staff were very good. Did not visit the casino.

Enjoyed my stay here. Big room with a large balcony overlooking the river and the town. Very picturesque. Staff were helpful. Great breakfast, Good parking. I would ask for a river view if you are staying here. Laundromat down the street.
